Make handoffs easier with a Baserow table directory
A handoff is easier to pick up when the next person can quickly see which tables are already available for the work.
Trigger
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Action
List Tables in Database
This tool lists all tables within a specified baserow database. it allows users to retrieve information about all tables in a database by using the get /api/database/{database id}/tables/ endpoint. the expected output is an array of table objects containing details such as id, name, order, database id, type, and first row header.
Why this helps
A handoff can require reconstructing where information lives just when someone is trying to regain momentum.
- Reduces reorientation effort during a handoff.
- Keeps table discovery attached to the conversation carrying the work.
- Makes the available structure easier to check before follow-up.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Baserow to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Ask Notis to list tables in the specified Baserow database when a handoff message arrives in Slack.
- 3Pick the channel message trigger and set the run-report destination.
- 4Post a real handoff message and review the table directory.
